I'm having a healthy debate with someone rn. I need to know what y'all consider the 'middle aged' age bracket to be. Not what Google says or what your peers tell you. What age range, to you, is considered middle aged? #blackskyover30 #blackskyover40 - ThreadSky

Mid 40s was always my definition.

Interesting. They said starting at 40 and I argued that nowadays I feel like 50-60 is middle age.

Mid 40s
Which is strange because I'm there and I don't feel middle-aged. 🥴

Lol. See! This was kinda the point that I was making. I just don't view anyone in their 40s as middle aged. Idk.

Lol, it's weird but I feel the same way. I know in my heart mid-40s is it, but I don't want to admit I'm there.

According to researchers at the University of Washington, life expectancy for Black Americans is 72.3 on the high end, so I look at it as a range from about 35-45 y/o. I'm 49, and I still don't feel old, but I have children pushing 30, so I know I'm not young.
